Oof a Moore-Lovejoy pairing out there, it's only a 5 goal lead, don't get cocky Hynes.

Fair. Matthews with 5, who gets the other 7?

Nylander, and Hyman. Matthews breaks Sittlers record

Wow lovejoy sucks. That turnover...

WHY WAS LOVEJOY trying a backwards spin around pass behind his back in the first place, especialy with out anyone being there

whats the final score?

Even in a 6-1 game Lovejoy manages to stick out as terrible

fwiw, I think our opponents being what they are has had some say in our immediate success. Bernier and Lehner aren't great, and the defenses in front of them are bottom-tier level.
We won't see this many defensive breakdowns leading to goals, we won't see as many poor reads by goalies.. won't get as many odd-man opportunities.

Curious if Bratt can really keep this up.

Hischier is a player man.

Not sure if this is the biggest positive, but if we can keep playing with confidence and speed, maybe it'll help convince Hall to stick around another 4-6 years?

How was Zacha today? Seems like today was the Hischier-Bratt show.

Man, I feel like this is a whole new tem. Really entertaining to watch. We are deeeeeepppppp

Bernier won 21 games last year. He’s definitely one of the better back ups in the league. But it is early teams will clean up their play. Zacha was ok didn’t really do much to stand out. But he was with new line mates a good amount of the game.

The more we see of Zacha, the more the in his prime Zubrus comparison seems accurate. Not a bad thing.

He'll be better. Prime Zubrus got to play with Ovechkin.

nice win

The scout who picked out Bratt deserves a promotion

So I went into the Sabres blog, and saw the comments. Go ahead and give that a skim, and it will be very close to how we all felt last year.

Bratt was drafted in 2016, by New Jersey Devils, 162nd overall; Conte (left in 2015?) was long gone or am I missing something?

(frank) them, I hate that team simply because of the fans. We could be setting winning records with our goaltender on an 80 game shutout streak and we'd still be destined for the basement.
